Welcome back to Elm Street Revisited, a Dread Central podcast interviewing the Dream Masters responsible for directing the sequels to A Nightmare on Elm Street.

In our fourth episode, host Josh Korngut sits down with A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child director Stephen Hopkins, the stylish visualist who transformed Freddy Krueger’s world into a surreal gothic nightmare. Together, they revisit the making of one of the franchise’s wildest and most ambitious entries — from its expressionist production design and elaborate dream sequences to the behind-the-scenes chaos of bringing a studio horror film to life on an impossible timeline.

Hopkins reflects on joining the franchise at just 26 years old, his collaboration with Robert Englund and Lisa Wilcox, and how The Dream Child pushed the series into darker, more operatic territory.

This episode continues Elm Street Revisited — a special Development Hell event series featuring in-depth interviews with every living director behind the A Nightmare on Elm Street saga.

Ready to revisit The Dream Child? The new 4K Ultra HD NOES collection, including the original seven films, is out now from Warner Brothers Home Entertainment.
